[QUOTE="Zeroed, post: 3573372, member: 98"] Im not sure about the newer mitsus, but the evo3 front LSD is also a clutch type I thought? I believe a mivec one is a clutch type atleast since ive seen it before... Neyo, the easiest way to confirm is to remove a driveshaft and shine a light inside to see if there's a middle LSD shaft (or if its a viscous diff, a blocked housing) in the middle of the diff. Or remove both driveshafts and see if you can see through the hole. If you cannot, its likely that you have an LSD. Sometimes you cannot feel the LSD effect due to a worn out LSD, but if the wheels dont even spin when you jack them up... then its unlikely that you have a clutch type LSD, or one at all in your gearbox lor. Another way is to put one wheel on an oily+wet surface and dump clutch & launch, and see if there's any power on the other wheel to move the car forward or not. You can put a small stone to block the wheel that is not on the oil+water to stop the car moving from the small transmission frictions, so if it moves its really from the power transferred by the LSD. But its still not an accurate test lah. Civic edge, for non-TypeRs I believe Honda used viscous LSDs for their B series range. Torsen/Helical LSDs basically last forever, unless they are subject to big amounts of abuse like high horsepower wheelspins. LSD inserts i dunno la. :) [/QUOTE]
